METALLIC 'MILK BOTTLE.

Application filed February, 25, 1926. Serial No. 90,568.

My invention relates to metallic milk bot-' ties, and more especlally toan aluminum nursing bottle, rolled edge around the mouth.

An object of my invention is to provide a nursing bottle which will besanitary, easily washed, and one which will not break easily. It is awell known fact that among the poorer families there are many times whena nursing bottle made of glass becomes broken, and the finances of thefamily will not permit the purchase of a new one- In such instances itis necessary that the child be fed from an or dinary glass or by othermeans. It is an object of my invention to provide a metallic nursingbottle, made preferably of aluminum, which is adapted to have a largerubber nipple fitted over the mouth thereof, said nursing bottle havinga smooth interior to prevent the adhering of germs thereto, and having ahighly polished outer surface, which will render the same pleasing inappearance and at the same time very serviceable.

Having thus stated some of the objects of my invention, other objectswill appear as the description proceeds. I 7 Some of the objects ofinvention having been stated, a brief description of the differentfigures in the drawings will follow, in which v I V Figure 1 'isa sideelevation of my device;

Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view of my metallic milk bottle;

Figure 3 is a side elevation of a modified form of my invention;

Figure 4C is a vertical sectional view modification shown in Figure 3. Ia

The figures in the drawings having been briefly described, a detaileddescription of 'the drawings will now follow, in which like referencecharacters indicate corresponding parts throughout thedrawings.

The numeral 1 indicat es the slde portions of my metallic milk bottle,while the reference character 2 designates the flat bottom thereto, thesides flaring outwardly and up,- wardly from the said bottom portion.The

which is seamlessand has a of the top of the bottle has a rolled edge 3,and a series of graduations 4 appear on the side of the bottle, the sideand the entire exterior being highly polished to present a neatappearance and to add to the sanitary properties of the bottle. Thebottle has a smooth interior 5.. p

A slight modification ofmy invention is shown in Figures 3 and l, inwhich the bottom portion 6 is'made in one piece with the sides 7. Thismodification also has theroll'ed lip 8 at its upper and open end, whichis similar I to the rolled lip 3 as shown in Figures 1 and 2. I Thismodification shown in Figures 3 and 4 also has the highly polishedexterior and the smooth interior. g i

It is seen that I have'devised acne-piece, seamless, sanitary,unbreakable nursing bottle, and one which will fill a long felt need.

This bottle can be made bystamping the same out of aluminum stock or bymolding the same, or by any desired method, and when made and polishedwill be more sanitary than any bottle heretofore known, in that it canbe thrown.- into boiling water and thoroughly cleansed, while theordinary'glass bottle breakage loss.

Having thus ters Patent of theUnited States is as follows:

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as I have signed my name to thisspecihis the 11th day of February, 1926.
